The only player in the Marvel universe.

Feeling the undisguised contempt in Du Mu's eyes, even Daofeng, who always presented a cold image, couldn't help but feel a hint of embarrassment.

To effectively combat these dark creatures, he mixed every single bullet in his shotgun with expensive pure silver.

A single burst of bullets would cost at least several hundred dollars.

As an unemployed vampire hunter, Blade's financial situation simply cannot support this extravagant way of playing with bullets.

Otherwise, why do you think he carries that silver longsword around all day to slay vampires?

Do you really think he's just trying to look cool?

Hmm... well, that's definitely part of the reason.

"Give me the gun." Du Mu held out his hand.

Blade hesitated, "I'm out of bullets..."

"5000 US dollars, consider it a purchase."

"Here you go! The gun and the remaining twenty bullets are yours!"

Blade instantly became incredibly decisive, throwing the shotgun in his hand, along with all the silver shotgun shells he was carrying, to Du Mu without hesitation.

Du Mu: (≖_≖)

Bro, your cool persona really crumbled a bit too quickly.

Du Mu caught the shotgun steadily, quickly loaded it with bullets, and fired at the vampires.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Gunshots rang out one after another, and the heads of several vampire gunmen exploded instantly!

The headless corpse swayed, then collapsed to the ground, quickly turning into puddles of ashes.

Seeing Du Mu's precise marksmanship, the remaining vampires were terrified and immediately shrank back behind cover, not daring to show their faces.

Seeing this, Du Mu calmly took out a few grenades, pulled out the safety pins, and threw them forcefully towards the group of bunkers where the vampires were hiding without even looking.

Boom!!

A huge explosion rang out!

Several unlucky vampires were blown away by the grenade, their skin torn and bleeding, and they lay on the ground howling in pain.

It must be said that vampires are indeed very resilient; even with such severe injuries, their wails are still full of energy.

Du Mu raised his gun and finished off the vampires on the ground one by one, and the mission progress increased by several more.

Seeing Du Mu's ferocity, Kunen swallowed hard and, forcing himself to remain calm, shouted, "Don't be afraid! Let's attack together! He can't kill us all at once!"

The vampires exchanged glances, seemingly persuaded, and simultaneously raised their guns to aim at Du Mu.

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

As the gunshot rang out, another layer of ash appeared on the ground.

As it turns out, Du Mu was indeed capable.

boom!

Du Mu slightly raised the muzzle of his gun and accurately struck Kunen's legs as he tried to escape in the chaos.

"He's yours now."

Ignoring Kunen's groans on the ground, Du Mu picked up his watermelon knife and walked over to finish off the vampire he had just knocked down.

[Current Vampire Kills: 665]

Looking at the number, Du Mu frowned and felt uneasy all over.

He turned to Blade, who had just finished a brief interrogation of Quinn: "Do you want this head?"

Blade shook his head: "No."

Swish!

With a flash of light, Quinn's head was severed in an instant.

[Current Vampire Kills: 666]

"Ah, that feels so good!"

Du Mu breathed a long sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

"..."

Looking at Du Mu's relieved expression, Blade felt that this guy seemed to have some kind of peculiar hobby.

Du Mu put away his watermelon knife and asked, "What are you planning to do next?"

Blade said in a deep voice, "Quinn said that Fies is planning a big operation recently, but he doesn't know the specifics. I'm going to go to Fies's territories one by one and find him out."

The mention of Firth's name filled Blade's voice with a chilling edge.

Firth killed his own mother, and he has an irreconcilable grudge against Firth, which must be avenged!

Du Mu grinned: "I also need to hunt vampires, how about we team up temporarily? You go find your Fess, and I'll take the kills."

"it is good."

After thinking about it, Blade agreed to Du Mu's suggestion.

He wasn't a stubborn person, and with an extra powerful ally, the search for Firth would only go more smoothly.

The moment Blade agreed, a system notification sounded in Du Mu's mind:

NPC Eric Brooks has joined your party.

You can view your teammates' individual profiles.

Upon seeing the notification, Du Mu exclaimed in surprise, "This game actually has a team-up function? How come it's never appeared before?"

He recalled fighting a boss with Tony not long ago, but there was no such prompt then.

To team up with an NPC, the player must personally send an invitation, and the team will only be successfully formed after the NPC accepts. NPCs do not have the authority to initiate team formation.

"Why didn't you say so sooner!" Du Mu was speechless.

This game offers an extremely high degree of freedom, aiming to provide the most realistic and immersive experience. All gameplay and story development are left to players to explore and discover on their own.

"Alright."

Du Mu pursed his lips and, with curiosity, opened Blade's personal panel.

[NPC: Eric Brooks (Blade Runner)]

Race: Half-human, half-vampire

[Attributes: Strength?, Agility?, Constitution?, Spirit? (Unable to view due to insufficient affinity)]

[Equipment: Stylish sunglasses, bulletproof armor, silver longsword, silver dagger...]

【Favourability: 0】

"This guy is actually half-human and half-vampire."

Du Mu was a little surprised, but then he thought, wouldn't he be considered half a vampire?

Will cutting him increase the quest progress by 0.5?

At this moment, Du Mu suddenly noticed that the Blade's equipment slot seemed to be touchable, and curiously tapped the silver longsword.

The NPC's affinity with the player is insufficient to remove this equipment.

"!!!"

Du Mu's eyes widened immediately.

He immediately pressed the system, "So, this means that as long as an NPC's favorability rating is high enough, I can freely remove their equipment!?"

【Yes】

"Hiss~"

Du Mu gasped, realizing he had made a small contribution to global warming.

He seems to have accidentally discovered the game's incredibly powerful mechanics!

He looked at Blade, his eyes suddenly becoming incredibly enthusiastic: "Bro, do you have any missions? Or anything that needs help? I'm available anytime!"

"no."

As Daofeng looked at Du Mu's sudden enthusiasm, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if some conspiracy was waiting for him.

The two did not linger at the nightclub.

After agreeing on the location and time for their next action, they left one after another.

Before leaving, Blade made sure to carefully search for the silver shotgun shells scattered on the ground, even using his dagger to pry them out of the wall.

These pure silver bullets were extremely precious to him; he could take them back, melt them down, recast them, and continue using them.

This is what it's like behind the scenes of superheroes—heartbreaking and real.

Du Mu also asked Blade for some specially made equipment to deal with vampires.

Blade hesitated at first, after all, his equipment was quite expensive.

Without saying a word, Du Mu pulled out a large stack of banknotes with Franklin's portrait on them.

Seeing that Du Mu was trying to insult him with money, Blade immediately turned hostile, snatched Franklin from in front of him, and slammed him into his pocket. Then, without hesitation, he took off his equipment and weapons and threw them all to Du Mu.

If Du Mu hadn't explicitly stated that he wasn't interested in his signature sunglasses, Daofeng would have even considered taking them off and giving them to him as well.

No wonder Blade reacted so strongly.

After all, the price of pure silver has skyrocketed recently, and he's almost out of money to eliminate vampires and protect New York.
